NewMexExpat said:Thanks, J. T. That helps a little, I guess. I'm looking at something a little out of character for me. I'm thinking I'd like something a little more formal than my Lagomarsino fedora, Open Road, or Ecuador-blocked PHM Panama for my son's wedding in Arkansas this June. Unfortunately, they only show the white version on the website, ... ... Wish they showed it in my color; it really looks much nicer:
ValEag said:I had posted this one in the 'New Hats' thread, but it seems appropriate here also.
I have three 'firsts' with this one:
First straw.
First Milan.
First Stetson.
JP, I've got that exact hat from Miller, and it has been my primary summer straw. It's a great summer hat for relatively low cost--and it looks good on you!jpbales said:Can do! I wore it to church today.
Lexybeast, I'm looking for another Milan, and I like the looks of that one--particularly the orange in the ribbon. Nice--I'll check out Biltmore!Lexybeast said:Here's a Biltmore Milan I've had for a couple years, which I'm sure is made from the synthetic/fake stuff. I have to say though that it is nigh indestructible. It got soaked in China during monsoon season, and it's no worse for wear!
NewMexExpat said:I finally decided to go ahead an buy this back in May. I'm very, very happy with it. I think it worked very well for the wedding (candid photo below), and I'm amazed that it leaves my head feeling cooler than any of my other hats, including a Montecristi (makes sense) and a coarser, more loosely woven Cuenca.

Our Black stingy straws are very similar, other then yours being a Biltmore and mine is a Knox, the ribbon is almost identical.....:eusa_clapjazzncocktails said:
